AMC is bringing Dan Simmons' classic historical horror novel The Terror to the screen. The mini-series will debut on 26 March. They have now released two trailers for the series:

Set in 1845-48, the story follows the voyage of two Royal Navy icebreakers, HMS Erebus and HMS Terror, as they try to sail through the Arctic Archipelago north of Canada in search of the rumoured Northwest Passage around North America and into the Pacific. The story mixes historical fact - the Franklin Expedition was a real, infamous event and in fact the wrecks of both ships have been discovered in the last few years - and supernatural fiction.The Terror consists of ten episodes and stars Ciaran Hinds (Rome, Game of Thrones) as John Franklin, Jared Harris (The Expanse) as Francise Crozier, Tobias Menzies (Game of Thrones, Outlander, Rome) as James Fitzjames and Nieve Nielsen (The New World) as Silence.
